SV6 isn't the base model - that's the Omega.

Still begs the question of why he looked, there has only been one good looking Holden... EVER! & thats one of the Senator models. Even then it's still a piece of shit as it's a Holden.
Then given the lack of driving ability inside any Holden, looking inside a moving one just seems stupid like playing with white fire really.

O. I C. you're one of those ford fags.

It's only gay if your balls touch!

Oh right, shit drivers are brand specific.

It does seem so.

I thought it was you're only gay if you ride a Honda. I wish you gays would make up your mind.

There's a reason for all the loop holes I reckon. So drunk dudes can cry themselves back to sleep after waking up in the crying game.

It's just a theory, prolly nothing in it.

Why not? we stereotype everything else.

No but there was a bit of research that showed there was a brand bias, do wish I would save the links to these. Basically the posher the car the worse the driver, more self entitled, more likely to run reds, cut people off, fail to yield to pedestrians etc.
Therefore, as bike are seen by most as cheap transport, Scummy and Rustus should be targeting Mercs, BMWs, flash Fords and Holden cars and leaving us bikers alone. When was the last time hell froze over?

You're implying border line conspiracy. But there's a hole I'm afraid.

If tickets really are a revenue gathering excersize, and as you say posh cars break the law more, why wouldn't cops target them? They would at least pay the fines, unlike a huge portion of the ones dished out at the moment, (mine included, at least not at once).

The drivers of the flash one's (some bikes included) just mutter under their breath, pay the fine and move on. (In their reg'd and WoF'd vehicles) The "other end" of the financial scale of vehicles ... hold more fun and reward. Which one of them will write the ticket that gets the first south island boyracer's car crushed ... ???

Bikers go online and whinge how badly done they've been ... how they were unfairly caught ... blah blah ... whinge ... blah ... wimper ...

Mr R came online and WARNED us all ... he was going to be there. And still there were some that were caught.

This might come as quite a shock, but there are actually bikers out there that aren't on KB ... I know, crazy right!

Go wash your month out for uttering such rubbish.

PD for you mister

My cop brother was pissed off that he was stuck in traffic dropping me off at auckland airport, otherwise he would have pulled up the blonde driving a porsche that failed to give way while talking on her cellphone and not wearing a seatbelt. He reckoned that stop would have had maximum satisfaction value.

Haha, well sometimes they run out of luck - like the numpty drongo today who was storming up and down a street going past a school.
Got complaints about his speed etc.
Arrived in th earea, saw him driving in a sub-standard manner, followed him to his drive-way (He hadn't noticed the disco lights trailing his p.o.s. Subaru for the last 1/2 km)

Got out and spoke to him:
"I need to speak to you"
Him: "Oh yeah, I expect it's about me not wearing my seatbelt"

Me (to myself) "Well that's one offence I was unaware of up until now"

So a few ticket handed over and an 'explanation' that more tickets would follow if this sort of driving persisted.

[HenryDorsetCase]

Where were you guys today when the lowered, blacked out subaru forester pulled up beside me at the lights and the numpty was texting while driving? Should be put to death
